“Forming and promoting Hue bookcase”

On the morning of September 20, the Executive Committee of Hue City Theater Artist Association, in coordination with Hue Opera House and Hue Royal Traditional Arts Theater, held a ceremony to celebrate Vietnam Theater Day 2026.

On September 17, Vice Chairman of Hue City People’s Committee Tran Huu Thuy Giang met with Vietnam Railways (VNR) in Hanoi to discuss a proposed steam train service on the Hue - Danang route, which would connect Hue’s tourism sector with destinations across the region.

The 2026 National Sambo & Sambo Youth Championship concluded on the afternoon of September 16. Delivering an impressive performance, Hue athletes won a total of 27 medals, finishing ahead of strong teams such as the Army, Ho Chi Minh City, and Hung Yen to take first place in the overall team standings.

Behind the graceful and fluid movements on stage lie years of rigorous training, injuries, and quiet sacrifices. For Hue dancers, the challenge also lies in embracing contemporary influences while preserving the elegance, solemnity, and refinement that characterize the former imperial capital.

Drawing on the woodblock prints of traditional Vietnamese folk painting genres such as Dong Ho, Hang Trong, Kim Hoang, and Lang Sinh, the Woodblock Art Experience Space at 23-25 Le Loi Street brings visitors closer to traditional art. Beyond contemplating the artworks, visitors can try printing and coloring the woodblocks while discovering the stories and cultural values behind each piece.
